Playlist Strategy ... what to use?

[krutsch]

Hi All,

I'm almost ready to "enjoy the music"; I've been spending way too much time playing around with devices and software and I want to bring all of this in for a landing.

I've settled on my FLAC collection, on a Mac Mini running MinimServer with BubbleUPnP Server, using an iPad w/ Linn Kazoo or my Samsung Note 4 running Bubble. My Bryston BDP-1 and Cubox-i4Pro (Volumio) renderers all work, play gapless and life is good.

MPD on the Bryston may outperform uPnP, SQ-wise, but the control software is just brutal (MPDroid, MPaD, Volumio, Bryston's Manic Moose really take the fun out of listening to music).

So, one last problem to solve... playlists.

I have about a 150 playlists in my iTunes library (I am an old mix tape guy and I have playlists that I've curated that pre-date digital music :-)

What is everyone else doing for playlist editing/management on a Mac?

Is there any way to create playlists once and share them across control points and renderers (i.e. I can create playlists in Kazoo, but they only exist on my iPad and not on my Mac - same issue for Bubble). I am willing to re-create playlists by hand, as I want to listen to them, but I only want to do this once.

Thanks, in advance, for any suggestions...
